COVID-19 Relief Package Includes Funding for Libraries!

We all let Congress know that libraries are indispensible in caring for their communities during disasters and we met our goal of being included in the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (CARES). Many thanks to those of you who took valuable time to contact your officials and bring awareness of librarians’ efforts during this time. The Cares Act includes $50 million in IMLS funding and billions in relief for schools and colleges. Good job, advocates!
